Absolute. All rights of the Collateral Agent, all security interests hereunder and all obligations of each Loan Party hereunder are unconditional and absolute and independent and separate from any other security for or guaranty of the
Finance Obligations, whether executed by the Borrower, such Loan Party, any other Loan Party or any other Person. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Loan Party hereunder shall not be released, discharged or
otherwise affected or impaired by: 
  
 (i) any
extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, acceleration, waiver or release in respect of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Finance Document or any other agreement or instrument evidencing or securing any Finance Obligation, by operation of
law or otherwise; 
  
 (ii) any change in the
manner, place, time or terms of payment of any Finance Obligation or any other amendment, supplement or modification to any Finance Document or any other agreement or instrument evidencing or securing any Finance Obligation; 
  
 (iii) any release, non-perfection or invalidity of any
direct or indirect security for any Finance Obligation, any sale, exchange, surrender, realization upon, offset against or other action in respect of any direct or indirect security for any Finance Obligation or any release of any other obligor in
respect of any Finance Obligation; 
  
 (iv) any
change in the existence, structure or ownership of any Loan Party, or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or other similar proceeding affecting
any Loan Party or its assets or any resulting disallowance, release or discharge of all or any portion of any Finance Obligation; 
  
 (v) the existence of any claim, set-off or other right which any Loan Party may have at any time against the Borrower, Holdings, any
Subsidiary Guarantor, any other Loan Party, any Agent, any other Finance Party or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated transaction; provided that nothing herein shall prevent the assertion of any such claim by
separate suit or compulsory counterclaim; 
  

 -9- 









 (vi) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Borrower or any other
Loan Party for any reason of any Finance Document or any other agreement or instrument evidencing or securing any Finance Obligation or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by the Borrower or any other
Loan Party of any Finance Obligation; 
  
 (vii)
any failure by any Finance Party: (A) to file or enforce a claim against any Loan Party or other Loan Party or its estate (in a bankruptcy or other proceeding); (B) to give notice of the existence, creation or incurrence by any Loan Party or other
Loan Party of any new or additional indebtedness or obligation under or with respect to the Finance Obligations; (C) to commence any action against any Loan Party or other Loan Party; (D) to disclose to any Loan Party any facts which such Finance
Party may now or hereafter know with regard to any Loan Party or other Loan Party; or (E) to proceed with due diligence in the collection, protection or realization upon any collateral securing the Finance Obligations; 
  
 (viii) any direction as to application of payment by the
Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person; 
  
 (ix) any subordination by any Finance Party of the payment of any Finance Obligation to the payment of any other liability (whether matured or unmatured) of any Loan Party to its creditors; 
  
 (x) any act or failure to act by the Collateral Agent or any
other Finance Party under this Agreement or otherwise which may deprive any Loan Party of any right to subrogation, contribution or reimbursement against the Borrower or any other Loan Party or any right to recover full indemnity for any payments
made by such Loan Party in respect of the Finance Obligations; or 
  
 (xi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by any Loan Party or any Finance Party or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this clause, constitute
a legal or equitable discharge of any Loan Party’s obligations hereunder. 
  
 Each Loan Party has irrevocably and unconditionally delivered this Agreement to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Finance Parties, and the failure by any other Person to sign this Agreement or a pledge
agreement similar to this Agreement or otherwise shall not discharge the obligations of any Loan Party hereunder. 
  
 This Agreement shall remain fully enforceable against each Loan Party irrespective of any defenses that any other Loan Party may have or assert in respect
of the Finance Obligations, including, without limitation, failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury. 
  
 Section 2.03 Continuing Liability of the Loan Parties.
The Security Interests are granted as security only and shall not subject the Collateral Agent or any Finance Party to, or transfer or in any way affect or modify, any obligation or liability of any Loan Party with respect to any of the Collateral
or any transaction in connection therewith.

 ARTICLE III 
 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
  
 Each Loan Party represents and warrants that: 
  
 Section 3.01 Title to Collateral. Such Loan Party is the legal, record and beneficial owner of, and has good and marketable title to, all of the Collateral pledged by it hereunder, free and clear of any Liens other than
Permitted Liens and Liens securing indebtedness to be repaid with the proceeds of the initial Loans under the Credit Agreement and in respect of which the Administrative Agent has received pay-off letters and instruments appropriate under local law
to effect the termination of such Liens. Other than financing statements or other similar or equivalent documents or instruments with respect to the Security Interests and other Permitted Liens, no financing statement, mortgage, security agreement
or similar or equivalent document or instrument covering all or any part of the Collateral is on file or of record in any jurisdiction in which such filing or recording would be effective to perfect a Lien on such Collateral. No Collateral is in the
possession or control of any Person asserting any claim thereto or security interest therein, except that the Collateral Agent or its nominee, custodian or a Securities Intermediary acting on its behalf may have possession and/or control of
Collateral as contemplated hereby and by the other Finance Documents. 
  
 Section 3.02 Validity, Perfection and Priority of Security Interests. The Security Interests constitute valid security interests under the UCC securing the Finance Obligations. Upon Delivery of all Collateral to the
Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions hereof and filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements containing a description of the Collateral in the form specified in Exhibit C hereto or stating that the same covers “all
assets”, “all personal property” or words of similar import in the offices specified in Schedule V hereto, the Security Interests shall constitute perfected security interests in all right, title and interest of such Loan Party
in the Collateral (subject to the requirements of Section 9-315 of the UCC with respect to any Proceeds of Collateral and to the further requirement that additional steps may be necessary to perfect the Security Interests in dividends or other
distributions in kind), in each case prior to all other Liens and rights of others therein except for Permitted Liens, and, to the extent control of such Collateral may be obtained pursuant to Article 8 and/or 9 of the UCC, the Collateral Agent will
have a perfect security interest in the Collateral subject to no adverse claims of any other Person, except for Permitted Liens. Except as set forth in Schedule V hereto, on and as of the date hereof no registration, recordation or filing
with any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the execution or delivery of this Agreement, or necessary for the validity or enforceability hereof or for the perfection of the Security Interests. 
  
 Section 3.03 Collateral. 
  
 (a) Schedules I, II, III and IV hereto (as such schedules may be
amended, supplemented or modified from time to time) set forth (i) the name and jurisdiction of organization of, and the ownership interest (including percentage owned and number of shares, units or other equity interests) of such Loan Party in the
shares, LLC Interests and Partnership Interests issued by each of such Loan Party’s direct Subsidiaries which are required to be included in the Collateral and pledged hereunder, (ii) all other Shares, LLC Interests and Partnership Interests
directly owned by such Loan Party that are required to be included in the Collateral and pledged hereunder and (iii) the issuer, date and amount of all notes directly owned or held by such Loan Party that are required to be included in the
Collateral and pledged hereunder. Such Loan Party holds all such Collateral directly (i.e., not through a Subsidiary, Securities Intermediary or any other Person). 
  
 (b) All Collateral consisting of Pledged Shares, Pledged LLC Interests and Pledged Partnership Interests has been duly
authorized and validly issued, is fully paid and non-assessable and is 

  

 -11- 









 
subject to no options to purchase or similar rights of any Person. Except as set forth on Schedules I, III and IV hereto, (i) such Collateral
constitutes 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or other equity interests of the respective issuers thereof, (ii) no issuer of Collateral has outstanding any security convertible into or exchangeable for any shares of its
capital stock or other equity interests or any warrant, option, convertible security, instrument or other interest entitling the holder thereof to acquire any such shares or any security convertible into or exchangeable for such shares, (iii) there
are no voting trusts, stockholder agreements, proxies or other agreements in effect with respect to the voting or transfer of such shares of its capital stock and (iv) there are no Liens or agreements, arrangements or obligations to create or give
any Lien relating to any such shares of capital stock. No Loan Party is now a party to, or will become a party to, or is otherwise bound by, any agreement, other than this Agreement, which restricts in any manner the rights of the Collateral Agent
or any other present or future holder of any Collateral with respect thereto. 
  
 Section 3.04 No Consents. No consent of any other Person (including, without limitation, any stockholder or creditor of such Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries) and no order, consent, approval,
license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by any Governmental Authority is required to be obtained by the Loan Party in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement,
or in connection with the exercise of the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement, except as may be contemplated by the Credit Documents or required in connection with the disposition of the Collateral by laws
affecting the offering and sale of securities generally. 
  
 ARTICLE IV 
 COVENANTS 
  
 Each Loan Party covenants and agrees that until the payment in full of all Finance Obligations and until there is no commitment by any Finance Party to
make further advances, incur obligations or otherwise give value, such Loan Party will comply with the following: 
  
 Section 4.01 Delivery of Collateral. All Collateral shall be Delivered to and held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent pursuant
hereto; provided that so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and except as required by the Security Agreement or any other Finance Document, each Loan Party may retain any Collateral (i) consisting of checks,
drafts and other Instruments (other than Pledged Notes and any additional or substitute promissory notes issued to or otherwise acquired by such Loan Party in respect of Pledged Notes) received by it in the ordinary course of business or (ii) which
it is otherwise entitled to receive and retain pursuant to Section 5.01 hereof, and the Collateral Agent shall, promptly upon request of any Loan Party, make appropriate arrangements for making any Collateral consisting of an Instrument or a
Certificated Security pledged by such Loan Party available to it for purposes of presentation, collection or renewal (any such arrangement to be effected, to the extent deemed appropriate to the Collateral Agent, against trust receipt or like
document). All Collateral Delivered hereunder shall be accompanied by any required transfer tax stamps. To the extent permitted applicable Law, the Collateral Agent shall have the right upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, and upon notice to any Loan Party, to cause any or all of the Collateral to be transferred of record into the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee. Each Loan Party will promptly give the Collateral Agent copies of any notices or
other communications received by it with respect to Collateral registered in the name of such Loan Party, and the Collateral Agent will promptly give each Loan Party copies of any notices and communications received by the Collateral Agent with
respect to Collateral registered in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee or custodian. 
  

 -12- 









 Section 4.02 Delivery of Perfection Certificate; Filing of Financing Statements and Delivery
of Search Reports. Not less than five Business Days prior to the Closing Date, such Loan Party shall deliver its Perfection Certificate to the Collateral Agent and shall cause all filings and recordings and other actions specified in
Schedule V hereto to have been completed. The information set forth in the Perfection Certificate shall be correct and complete. Not later than 60 days following the Closing Date, such Loan Party shall furnish to the Collateral Agent file
search reports from each Uniform Commercial Code filing office set forth in Schedule V confirming the filing information set forth in such Schedule. 
  
 Section 4.03 Change of Name, Identity, Structure or Location; Subjection to Other Security Agreements; Locations of Places of Business and
Chief Executive Office. Such Loan Party will not change its name, identity, structure or location (determined as provided in Section 9-307 of the UCC) in any manner, and shall not become bound, as provided in Section 9-203(d) of the UCC, by
a security agreement entered into by another Person, in each case unless it shall have given the Collateral Agent not less than 30 days’ prior notice thereof. Such Loan Party shall not in any event change the location of its place or places of
business, its chief executive office or any Collateral or its name, identity, structure or location (determined as provided in Section 9-307 of the UCC), or become bound, as provided in Section 9-307 of the UCC, by a security agreement entered into
by another Person, if such change would cause the Security Interests in any Collateral to lapse or cease to be perfected unless such Loan Party has taken on or before the date of lapse all actions necessary to ensure that the Security Interests in
all Collateral do not lapse or cease to be perfected. 
  
 Section 4.04 Further Assurances. Such Loan Party will, from time to time at its expense at the request of the Collateral Agent and in such manner and form as the Collateral Agent may require, execute, deliver, file and
record any financing statement, specific assignment, instrument, document, agreement or other paper and take any other action (including, without limitation, any filings of financing or continuation statements under the Uniform Commercial Code) that
from time to time may be necessary or desirable, or that the Collateral Agent may request, in order to create, preserve, perfect, confirm or validate the Security Interests or to enable the Collateral Agent and the Finance Parties to obtain the full
benefit of this Agreement or to exercise and enforce any of its rights, powers and remedies created hereunder or under applicable law with respect to any of the Collateral. To the extent permitted by applicable law, such Loan Party hereby authorizes
the Collateral Agent to execute and file, in the name of such Loan Party or otherwise and without the signature or other separate authorization or authentication of such Loan Party appearing thereon, such Uniform Commercial Code financing statements
or continuation statements as the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion may deem necessary or appropriate to perfect or maintain the perfection of the Security Interests. Such Loan Party agrees that a carbon, photographic, photostatic or other
reproduction of this Agreement or of a financing statement is sufficient as a financing statement. The Loan Parties shall pay the costs of, or incidental to, any recording or filing of any financing or continuation statements concerning the
Collateral. 
  
 Section 4.05 Disposition of
Collateral. Such Loan Party will not sell, exchange, assign or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any Collateral or create or suffer to exist any Lien (other than the Security Interests and Permitted Liens) on any
Collateral except that, subject to the rights of the Collateral Agent and the Finance Parties hereunder if a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such Loan Party may sell, exchange, assign or otherwise dispose of, or
grant options with respect to, Collateral to the extent expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement, whereupon, in the case of any such disposition, the Security Interests created hereby in such item (but not in any Proceeds arising from such
disposition) shall cease immediately without any further action on the part of the Collateral Agent. 
  

 -13- 









 Section 4.06 Additional Collateral. Such Loan Party will cause each issuer of the
Collateral not to issue any stock, other securities, limited liability company membership interests, partnership interests, promissory notes or other instruments in addition to or in substitution for the Pledged Shares, Pledged LLC Interests,
Pledged Partnership Interests and Pledged Notes issued by such issuer, except to such Loan Party, and, in the event that any issuer of Collateral at any time issues any additional or substitute stock, other securities, limited liability company
membership interests, partnership interests, promissory notes or other instruments to such Loan Party, such Loan Party will immediately Deliver all such items to the Collateral Agent to hold as Collateral hereunder and will promptly thereafter
deliver to the Collateral Agent a certificate executed by an authorized officer of such Loan Party describing such Pledged Shares, Pledged LLC Interests, Pledged Partnership Interests and/or Pledged Notes, attaching such supplements to Schedules
I through V hereto as are necessary to cause such Schedules to be complete and accurate at such time and certifying that such Pledged Shares, Pledged LLC Interests, Pledged Partnership Interests and/or Pledged Notes have been duly pledged with
the Collateral Agent hereunder. 
  
 Section 4.07
Information Regarding Collateral. Such Loan Party will, promptly upon request, provide to the Collateral Agent all information and evidence it may reasonably request concerning the Collateral to enable the Collateral Agent to
enforce the provisions of this Agreement.

 ARTICLE VI 
 GENERAL AUTHORITY; REMEDIES 
  
 Section 6.01 General Authority. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent and any officer or agent thereof as
its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, in the name of such Loan Party, the Collateral Agent, the Finance Parties or otherwise, for the sole use and benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Finance Parties, but at such
Loan Party’s expense, to the extent permitted by law, to exercise at any time and from time to time while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all or any of the following powers with respect to all or any of the Collateral, all
acts of such attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed; such power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until the Finance Obligations (excluding contingent indemnification obligations) are paid in full and until there is no commitment
by any Finance Party to make further advances, incur obligations or otherwise give value: 
  
 (i) to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to
carry out the terms of this Agreement; 
  
 (ii)
to receive, take, endorse, assign and deliver any and all checks, notes, drafts, acceptances, documents and other negotiable and non-negotiable instruments taken or received by such Loan Party as, or in connection with, the Collateral; 

 
 (iii) to accelerate any Pledged Note which may be
accelerated in accordance with its terms, and to otherwise demand, sue for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all monies due on or by virtue of any Collateral; 
  
 (iv) to commence, settle, compromise, compound, prosecute, defend or adjust any claim, suit, action or
proceeding with respect to, or in connection with, the Collateral; 
  
 (v) to sell, transfer, assign or otherwise deal in or with the Collateral or the proceeds or avails thereof, as fully and effectually as if the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof; 
  
 (vi) to extend the time of payment of any or all of the
Collateral and to make any allowance and other adjustments with respect thereto; 
  

 -16- 









 (vii) to vote all or any part of the Pledged Shares, Pledged LLC Interests, Pledged
Partnership Interests and/or Pledged Notes (whether or not transferred into the name of the Collateral Agent) and give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Collateral; and 
  
 (viii) to do, at its option, but at the expense of such Loan
Party, at any time or from time to time, all acts and things which the Collateral Agent deems necessary to protect or preserve the Collateral and to realize upon the Collateral. 
  
 Section 6.02 Remedies upon Event of Default. 
  
 (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Collateral Agent may, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement and in any other agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Finance Obligations: (i) exercise on behalf of the Finance Parties all rights and
remedies of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights are exercised) and, in addition, (ii) without demand of performance or other demand or notice of any kind (except as herein provided or as may
be required by mandatory provisions of law) to or upon any Loan Party or any other Person (all of which demands and/or notices are hereby waived by each Loan Party), (A) apply all cash, if any, then held by it as Collateral as specified in
Section 6.07 and (B) if there shall be no such cash or if such cash shall be insufficient to pay all the Finance Obligations in full or cannot be so applied for any reason or if the Collateral Agent determines to do so, collect, receive,
appropriate and realize upon the Collateral and/or sell, assign, give an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral (or contract to do so) or any part thereof in one or more parcels (which need not be in round
lots) at public or private sale or at broker’s board or on any securities exchange, at any office of the Collateral Agent or elsewhere in such manner as is commercially reasonable and as the Collateral Agent may deem best, for cash, on credit
or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk and at such price or prices as the Collateral Agent may deem satisfactory. 
  
 (b) The Collateral Agent shall give each Loan Party not less than 10 days’ prior notice of the time and place of any sale or other intended
disposition of any of the Collateral, except any Collateral which threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market. Any such notice shall (i) in the case of a public sale, state the time and place fixed
for such sale, (ii) in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or the portion thereof being sold, will first be
offered for sale, (iii) in the case of a private sale, state the day after which such sale may be consummated, (iv) contain the information specified in Section 9-613 of the UCC, (v) be authenticated and (vi) be sent to the parties required to be
notified pursuant to Section 9-611(c) of the UCC; provided that, if the Collateral Agent fails to comply with this sentence in any respect, its liability for such failure shall be limited to the liability (if any) imposed on it as a matter of
law under the UCC. The Collateral Agent and each Loan Party agree that such notice constitutes reasonable notification within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the UCC. Except as otherwise provided herein, each Loan Party hereby waives, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, notice and judicial hearing in connection with the Collateral Agent’s taking possession or disposition of any of the Collateral. 
  
 (c) The Collateral Agent or any Finance Party may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral so sold at any public
sale (or, if the Collateral is of a type customarily sold in a recognized market or is of a type which is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations, at any private sale). Each Loan Party will execute and deliver such documents and
take such other action as the Collateral Agent deems necessary or advisable in order that any such sale may be made in compliance with law. Upon any such sale, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to 

  

 -17- 









 
the purchaser thereof the Collateral so sold. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the Collateral so sold to it absolutely and free from any claim or
right of whatsoever kind. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary bankers hours and at such place or places as the Collateral Agent may fix in the notice of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral may be sold in
one lot as an entirety or in such parcels, as the Collateral Agent may determine. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any such sale pursuant to any such notice. The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any
public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the same may be so adjourned without further notice. In the
case of any sale of all or any part of the Collateral on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but the Collateral Agent shall not incur
any liability in case of the failure of such purchaser to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in the case of such failure, such Collateral may again be sold upon like notice. 
  
 Section 6.03 Securities Act; Registration Rights. 
  
 (a) Securities Act. In view of the position of the Loan Parties
in relation to the Collateral, or because of other present or future circumstances, a question may arise under the Securities Act of 1933, as now or hereafter in effect, or any similar statute hereafter enacted analogous in purpose or effect (such
Act and any such similar statute as from time to time in effect being herein called the “Federal Securities Laws”) with respect to any disposition of the Collateral permitted hereunder. Each Loan Party understands that compliance
with the Federal Securities Laws might very strictly limit the course of conduct of the Collateral Agent if the Collateral Agent were to attempt to dispose of all or any part of the Collateral, and might also limit the extent to which or the manner
in which any subsequent transferee of any Collateral could dispose of the same. Similarly, there may be other legal restrictions or limitations affecting the Collateral Agent in any attempt to dispose of all or part of the Collateral under
applicable Blue Sky or other state securities laws or similar laws analogous in purpose or effect. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 6.03 would apply if, for example, the Collateral Agent were to
place all or any part of the Collateral for private placement by an investment banking firm, or if such investment banking firm purchased all or any part of the Collateral for its own account, or if the Collateral Agent placed all or any part of the
Collateral privately with a purchaser or purchasers. 
  
 Accordingly, each Loan Party expressly agrees that the Collateral Agent is authorized, in connection with any sale of any Collateral, if it deems it advisable so to do: (i) to restrict the prospective bidders on or purchasers of any of the
Collateral to a limited number of sophisticated investors who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale of any of such Collateral; (ii) to cause to be
placed on certificates for any or all of the Collateral or on any other securities pledged hereunder a legend to the effect that such security has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and may not be disposed of in violation of the
provision of said Act; and (iii) to impose such other limitations or conditions in connection with any such sale as the Collateral Agent deems necessary or advisable in order to comply with said Act or any other law. Each Loan Party covenants and
agrees that it will execute and deliver such documents and take such other action as the Collateral Agent deems necessary or advisable in order that any such sale may be made in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933 and all other applicable
laws. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that such limitations may result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such limitations were not imposed, and, notwithstanding such limitations, agrees that any such sale shall
be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner, it being the agreement of the Loan Parties and the Collateral Agent that the provisions of this Section 6.03 will apply notwithstanding the existence of a public or private
market upon which the quotations or sales prices may exceed substantially the price at which the Collateral Agent sells the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall be under no

obligation to delay a sale of any Collateral for a period of time necessary to permit the issuer of any securities contained therein to register such
securities under the Federal Securities Laws, or under applicable state securities laws, even if the issuer would agree to do so. Furthermore, each Loan Party acknowledges that it is aware that Section 9-610 of the UCC provides that the Collateral
Agent or a Finance Party may purchase Collateral if it is sold at a public sale. Each Loan Party also acknowledges that it is aware that staff personnel of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission have, over a period of years, issued
various No-Action Letters that describe procedures which, in the view of the SEC staff, permit a foreclosure sale of securities to occur in a manner that is public for purposes of Part 6 of Article 9 of the UCC, yet not public for purposes of
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. Each Loan Party is also aware that the Collateral Agent or one or more Finance Parties may wish to purchase Collateral that is sold at a foreclosure sale, and such Loan Party believes that such purchases would be
appropriate in circumstances in which the Collateral securities are sold in conformity with the principles set forth in the No-Action Letters. Accordingly, each Loan Party specifically agrees that a foreclosure sale conducted in conformity with the
principles set forth in the No-Action Letters: (i) shall be considered to be a “public” sale for purposes of Section 9-610 of the UCC; (ii) will be considered commercially reasonable notwithstanding that the Collateral Agent or other
Finance Party has not registered or sought to register the Collateral under the Federal Securities Laws, even if one or more Loan Parties agrees to pay all costs of the registration process; and (iii) shall be considered to be commercially
reasonable notwithstanding that the Collateral Agent or one or more other Finance Parties purchases Collateral at such a sale. 
  
 (b) Registration Rights. If the Collateral Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell all or any of the Collateral and if in the
opinion of counsel for the Collateral Agent it is necessary, or if in the opinion of the Collateral Agent it is advisable, to have all or any of the securities included in the Collateral or the portion thereof to be sold registered under the
provisions of the Federal Securities Laws, each Loan Party agrees, at its own expense (including, without limitation, expenses relating to brokers commissions), (i) to execute and deliver, and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause each
Person whose securities are to be sold and their respective directors and officers to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and to do or cause to be done all other such acts and things, as may be necessary or, in the opinion of
the Collateral Agent, advisable to register such securities under the provisions of the Federal Securities Laws and to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for such period as prospectuses are
required by law to be furnished, and to make or cause to be made all amendments and supplements thereto and to the related prospectus which, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements
of the Securities Act of 1933 and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, (ii) to use its best efforts to cause the Person whose securities are to be sold to agree to prepare, and to make available to its
security holders as soon as practicable, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) covering the period of at least 12 months beginning with the first month after the effective date of any such registration statement, which earning statement
will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, (iii) to use its commercially reasonable efforts to qualify such securities under state Blue Sky or securities laws and to obtain the approval of any Governmental
Authorities for the sale of such securities as requested by the Collateral Agent and (iv) at the request of the Collateral Agent, to indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral Agent and any underwriters (and any person controlling any of the
foregoing) from and against any loss, liability, claim, damage and expense (and reasonable counsel fees incurred in connection therewith) under the Securities Act of 1933 or otherwise insofar as such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense arises
out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement or prospectus or in any preliminary prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arises out of or is based
upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, such indemnification to remain operative regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of
the Collateral Agent or any underwriters (or any person controlling any of the foregoing); provided that no Loan Party shall be liable in any case to 

  

 -19- 









 
the extent that any such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense arises out of or is based on an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or an
omission or an alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to such Loan Party by the Collateral Agent or any underwriter expressly for use in such registration statement or prospectus. 
  
 Section 6.04 Other Rights of the Collateral Agent.

  
 (a) The Collateral Agent, instead of exercising the power of
sale conferred upon it pursuant to Section 6.02, may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose the Security Interests and sell the Collateral, or any portion thereof, under a judgment or decree of a court or courts of
competent jurisdiction, and may in addition institute and maintain such suits and proceedings as the Collateral Agent may deem appropriate to protect and enforce the rights vested in the Collateral Agent by this Agreement. 
  
 (b) The Collateral Agent shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law,
without notice to any Loan Party or any party claiming through any Loan Party, without regard to the solvency or insolvency at such time of any Person then liable for the payment of any of the Finance Obligations, without regard to the then value of
the Collateral and without requiring any bond from any complainant in such proceedings, be entitled as a matter of right to the appointment of a receiver or receivers (who may be the Collateral Agent) of the Collateral or any part thereof, and of
the profits, revenues and other income thereof, pending such proceedings, with such powers as the court making such appointment shall confer, and to the entry of an order directing that the profits, revenues and other income of the property
constituting the whole or any part of the Collateral be segregated, sequestered and impounded for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Finance Parties, and each Loan Party irrevocably consents to the appointment of such receiver or receivers
and to the entry of such order. 
  
 Section 6.05
Limitation on Duty of Collateral Agent in Respect of Collateral. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, neither the Collateral Agent nor any Finance Party shall have any duty to exercise any rights or take
any steps to preserve the rights of any Loan Party in the Collateral in its or their possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any
other rights pertaining thereto, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any Finance Party be liable to any Loan Party or any other Person for failure to meet any obligation imposed by Section 9-207 of the UCC or any successor provision. Each Loan Party
agrees that the Collateral Agent shall at no time be required to, nor shall the Collateral Agent be liable to any Loan Party for any failure to, account separately to any Loan Party for amounts received or applied by the Collateral Agent from time
to time in respect of the Collateral pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession
or control if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its own property, and (i) shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Collateral, or for any diminution in
the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith or (ii) shall not have any duty or responsibility for ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions,
exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters. 
  
 Section 6.06 Waiver and Estoppel. 
  
 (a) Each Loan Party agrees, to the extent it may lawfully do so, that it will not at any time in any manner whatsoever claim
or take the benefit or advantage of, any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension, moratorium, turnover or redemption law, or any law permitting it to direct the order in which 

  

 -20- 









 
the Collateral shall be sold, now or at any time hereafter in force which may delay, prevent or otherwise affect the performance or enforcement of this
Agreement, and each Loan Party hereby waives all benefit or advantage of all such laws. Each Loan Party covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted to the Collateral Agent or any other Finance Party in any
Finance Document. 
  
 (b) Each Loan Party, to the extent it may
lawfully do so, on behalf of itself and all who claim through or under it, including without limitation any and all subsequent creditors, vendees, assignees and lienors, waives and releases all rights to demand or to have any marshalling of the
Collateral upon any sale, whether made under any power of sale granted herein or pursuant to judicial proceedings or under any foreclosure or any enforcement of this Agreement, and consents and agrees that all of the Collateral may at any such sale
be offered and sold as an entirety. 
  
 (c) Each Loan Party
waives, to the extent permitted by law, presentment, demand, protest and any notice of any kind (except the notices expressly required hereunder) in connection with this Agreement and any action taken by the Collateral Agent with respect to the
Collateral. 
  
 Section 6.07 Application of
Proceeds. 
  
 (a) Priority of Distributions.
The proceeds of any sale of, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral (including any proceeds received and held pursuant to Section 5.01) and any cash held by the Collateral Agent or its nominee or custodian hereunder
shall be applied as provided in Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent may make distributions hereunder in cash or in kind or, on a ratable basis, in any combination thereof. 
  
 (b) Distributions with Respect to Letters of Credit. Each of
the Loan Parties and the Finance Parties agrees and acknowledges that if (after all outstanding Loans and L/C Obligations under the Senior Finance Documents have been paid in full) the Lenders are to receive a distribution on account of undrawn
amounts with respect to Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement, such amounts shall be deposited in the L/C Cash Collateral Account (as defined in the Security Agreement) as cash security for the repayment of Finance Obligations owing to
the Lenders as such. Upon termination of all outstanding Letters of Credit, all of such cash security shall be applied to the remaining Finance Obligations of the Lenders. If there remains any excess cash security, such excess cash shall be
withdrawn by the Collateral Agent from the Cash Collateral Account and distributed in accordance with Section 6.07(a) hereof. 
  
 (c) Reliance by Collateral Agent. For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with this Section 6.07, the Collateral
Agent shall be entitled to rely upon (i) the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement and (ii) the authorized representative (the “Representative”) for the Swap Creditors for a determination (which the Administrative Agent,
each Representative for any Swap Creditor and the Finance Parties agree (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Collateral Agent) of the outstanding Senior Obligations, Swap Obligations and Supporting Obligations owed to the Finance Parties,
and shall have no liability to any Loan Party or any other Finance Party for actions taken in reliance on such information except in the case of its gross negligence or willful misconduct. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written
notice from a Finance Party) to the contrary, each of the Administrative Agent and each Representative, in furnishing information pursuant to the preceding sentence, and the Collateral Agent, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no
Supporting Obligations are outstanding. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from a Swap Creditor) to the contrary, the Collateral Agent, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Swap Agreements are in
existence. All distributions made by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section shall be presumptively correct (except in the event of 

  

 -21- 









 
manifest error), and the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire as to the application by the Finance Parties of any amounts distributed to them.

  
 (d) Deficiencies. It is understood that the Loan
Parties shall remain jointly and severally liable to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral and the amount of the Finance Obligations. 
  
 ARTICLE VII 
 THE COLLATERAL AGENT 
  
 Section 7.01
Concerning the Collateral Agent. The provisions of Article IX of the Credit Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent in respect of this Agreement and shall be binding upon all Loan Parties and all Finance
Parties and upon the parties hereto in such respect. In furtherance and not in derogation of the rights, privileges and immunities of the Collateral Agent therein set forth: 
  
 (i) The Collateral Agent is authorized to take all such actions as are provided to be taken by it as
Collateral Agent hereunder and all other action reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for herein (including, without limitation, the timing and methods of realization upon the Collateral) the Collateral Agent shall
act or refrain from acting in accordance with written instructions from the Required Lenders or, in the absence of such instructions, in accordance with its discretion. 
  
 (ii) The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the
Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Security Interests in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder unless such action or
omission constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Collateral Agent shall have no duty to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms of this Agreement by any Loan Party. 
  
 Section 7.02 Appointment of Co-Collateral Agent. At any
time or times, in order to comply with any legal requirement in any jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent may, in consultation with Holdings and, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, with its consent (not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed), appoint another bank or trust company or one or more other persons, either to act as co-agent or co-agents, jointly with the Collateral Agent, or to act as separate agent or agents on behalf of the Finance Parties with such
power and authority as may be necessary for the effectual operation of the provisions hereof and may be specified in the instrument of appointment (which may, in the discretion of the Collateral Agent, include provisions for the protection of such
co-agent or separate agent similar to the provisions of Section 7.01). 
  
 Section 7.03 Appointment of Sub-Agents. The Collateral Agent shall have the right to appoint one or more sub-agents for the purpose of retaining physical possession of the Pledged Shares, Pledged
LLC Interests, Pledged Partnership Interests and Pledged Notes, which may be held (in the discretion of the Collateral Agent) in the name of the relevant Loan Party, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the Collateral Agent or any nominee or
custodian of the Collateral Agent or a sub-agent appointed by the Collateral Agent.

 ARTICLE VIII 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 Section 8.01 Notices. 
  
 (a) Unless
otherwise specified herein, all notices, requests or other communications to any party hereunder shall be in writing (including by facsimile transmission) and mailed, faxed or delivered to the address or facsimile number: (i) in the case of
Holdings, the Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any Finance Party, referred to in Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement, (ii) in the case of the Collateral Agent, set forth on the signature pages hereof, (iii) in the case of any Swap
Creditor set forth in the applicable Swap Agreements or (iv) in the case of any party, to such other address, facsimile number or electronic mail address as such party shall hereafter specify for the purpose of communications hereunder by notice to
the other parties hereto. Each such notice, request or other communication shall be effective upon the earlier to occur of (i) actual receipt by the intended recipient and (ii) (A) if delivered by hand or by courier, when signed for by or on behalf
of the intended recipient, (B) if delivered by mail, four Business Days after deposit in the mails, postage prepaid and (C) if delivered by facsimile, when sent and receipt has been confirmed electronically. Rejection or refusal to accept, or the
inability to deliver because of a changed address of which no notice was given shall not affect the validity of notice given in accordance with this Section. 
  
 (b) This Agreement may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile and, if so transmitted or signed shall, subject to requirements of law, have the same
force and effect as a manually-signed original and shall be binding on all Loan Party, the Collateral Agent and the Finance Parties. The Collateral Agent may also require that this Agreement be confirmed by a manually-signed original hereof;
provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature. 
  
 Section 8.02 No Waivers; Non-Exclusive Remedies. No failure or delay on the part of the Collateral Agent or any Finance Party to
exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or any other Finance Document or any other document or agreement contemplated hereby or thereby shall operate as a waiver
thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies provided herein and in the other
Finance Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law. Without limiting the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall impair the right of any Finance Party to exercise any right of set-off or counterclaim it
may have and to apply the amount subject to such exercise to the payment of indebtedness of any Loan Party other than its indebtedness under the Finance Documents. Each Loan Party agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under
applicable law, that any holder of a participation in a Finance Obligation, whether or not acquired pursuant to the terms of any applicable Finance Document, may exercise rights of set-off or counterclaim or other rights with respect to such
participation as fully as if such holder of a participation were a direct creditor of the Loan Party in the amount of such participation. 
  
 Section 8.03 Compensation and Expenses of the Collateral Agent; Indemnification. 
  
 (a) Expenses. The Loan Parties, jointly and severally, agree to
pay (i) all out-of-pocket expenses of the Collateral Agent, including all Attorney Costs of the Collateral Agent, in connection with the preparation and administration of this Agreement or any document or agreement contemplated hereby, any waiver or
consent hereunder or any amendment hereof or any Default, Event of Default or alleged Event of Default, (ii) all taxes which the Collateral Agent or any Finance Party may be 

  

 -23- 









 
required to pay by reason of the security interests granted in the Collateral (including any applicable transfer taxes) or to free any of the Collateral from
the lien thereof and (iii) if an Event of Default or any payment default (after the expiration of any applicable grace period) under any Swap Agreement occurs, all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Agent and each Finance Party, including
(without duplication) the fees and disbursements of counsel, in connection with such Event of Default and collection, bankruptcy, insolvency and other enforcement proceedings resulting therefrom. 
  
 (b) Protection of Collateral. If any Loan Party fails to comply
with the provisions of any Finance Document, such that the value of any Collateral or the validity, perfection, rank or value of any Security Interest is thereby diminished or potentially diminished or put at risk, the Collateral Agent if requested
by the Required Lenders may, but shall not be required to, effect such compliance on behalf of such Loan Party, and the Loan Parties shall reimburse the Collateral Agent for the costs thereof on demand. Any and all excise, property, sales and use
taxes imposed by any state, federal or local authority on any of the Collateral, or in respect of periodic appraisals of the Collateral, or in respect of the sale or other disposition thereof shall be borne and paid by the Loan Parties. If any Loan
Party fails to promptly pay any portion thereof when due, the Collateral Agent may, at its option, but shall not be required to, pay the same and charge the Loan Parties’ account therefor, and the Loan Parties agree to reimburse the Collateral
Agent therefor on demand. All sums so paid or incurred by the Collateral Agent for any of the foregoing and any and all other sums for which any Loan Party may become liable hereunder and all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees, legal
expenses and court costs) reasonably incurred by the Collateral Agent or any Creditor in enforcing or protecting the Security Interests or any of their rights or remedies under this Agreement, shall, together with interest thereon until paid at the
rate applicable to Base Rate Loans plus 2%, be additional Finance Obligations hereunder. 
  
 (c) Indemnification. Each Loan Party agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims,
demands, actions, suits, judgments, costs and expenses of any kind, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, which may be incurred by, imposed on or asserted against such Indemnitee in connection with any
investigation or administrative or judicial proceeding (whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto) brought or threatened relating to or arising out of this Agreement or in any other way connected with the enforcement of any
of the terms of, or the preservation of any rights hereunder, or in any way relating to or arising out of the ownership, purchasing, delivery, control, acceptance, financing, possession, sale, return or other disposition of the Collateral, the
violation of the laws of any country, state or other governmental body or unit, or any tort or contract claim; provided that no Indemnitee shall have the right to be indemnified hereunder for such Indemnitee’s own gross negligence or
willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment or order. Each Loan Party agrees that upon written notice by any Indemnitee of the assertion of such a liability, obligation, loss, damage,
penalty, claim, demand, action, judgment or suit, such Loan Party shall assume full responsibility for the defense thereof. Each Indemnitee agrees to use its best efforts to notify the Loan Parties of any such assertion of which such Indemnitee has
knowledge. 
  
 (d) Contribution. If and to the
extent that the obligations of any Loan Party under this Section 8.03 are unenforceable for any reason, each Loan Party hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible
under applicable law. 
  
 (e) Obligations; Survival.
Any amounts paid by any Indemnitee as to which such Indemnitee has the right to reimbursement shall constitute Finance Obligations. The indemnity obligations of the Loan Parties contained in this Section 8.03 shall continue in full force and
effect notwithstanding the full payment of all Finance Obligations and notwithstanding the discharge thereof. 
  

 -24- 









 Section 8.04 Enforcement. The Finance Parties agree that this Agreement may be
enforced only by the action of the Collateral Agent, acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders (or, after the date on which all Senior Obligations have been paid in full, the holders of at least 51% of the outstanding Swap Obligations)
and that no other Finance Party shall have any right individually to seek to enforce this Agreement or to realize upon the security to be granted hereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Collateral
Agent or the holder of at least a 51% of the outstanding Swap Obligations, as the case may be, for the benefit of the Finance Parties upon the terms of this Agreement. 
  
 Section 8.05 Amendments and Waivers. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended, changed,
discharged, terminated or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by each Loan Party directly affected by such amendment, change, discharge, termination or waiver (it being understood that the addition or release
of any Loan Party hereunder shall not constitute an amendment, change, discharge, termination or waiver affecting any Loan Party other than the Loan Party so added or released) and either (i) the Collateral Agent (with the consent of the Required
Lenders or, to the extent required by Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement, all of the Lenders), at all times prior to the time on which all Finance Obligations have been paid in full and all Commitments with respect thereto have been
terminated or (ii) the holders of at least 51% of all Swap Obligations then outstanding, at all times after the time at which the Finance Obligations have been paid in full and all Commitments with respect thereto have been terminated;
provided, however, that no such amendment, change, discharge, termination or waiver shall be made to this Section 8.05 without the consent of each Finance Party adversely affected thereby; and provided further that
any amendment, change, discharge, termination or waiver adversely affecting the rights and benefits of a single Class of Finance Parties (and not all Finance Parties in a like or similar manner) shall require the written consent of the Required
Finance Parties of such Class of Finance Parties. For the purposes of this Section 8.05, the term “Class” means each class of Finance Parties, i.e., whether (x) the Lenders, as holders of the Senior Obligations or (y) the Swap
Creditors, as holders of the Swap Obligations. For the purposes of this Section 8.05, the term “Required Finance Parties” of any Class means each of (x) with respect to the Senior Obligations, the Required Lenders or (y) with
respect to the Swap Obligations, the holders of 51% of all Swap Obligations outstanding from time to time. 
  
 Section 8.06 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon each of the parties hereto and inure to the benefit of the
Collateral Agent and the Finance Parties and their respective successors and assigns. In the event of an assignment of all or any of the Finance Obligations, the rights hereunder, to the extent applicable to the indebtedness so assigned, may be
transferred with such indebtedness. No Loan Party shall assign or delegate any of its rights and duties hereunder without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders. 
  
 Section 8.07 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK), WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY MANDATORY PROVISIONS OF
LAW AND EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT REMEDIES PROVIDED BY THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTIONS OTHER THAN NEW YORK ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF SUCH JURISDICTIONS. 
  
 Section 8.08 Limitation of Law; Severability. 
  
 (a) All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof
does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the 

  

 -25- 









 
provisions of this Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law which may be controlling and be limited to the extent
necessary so that they will not render this Agreement invalid, unenforceable in whole or in part, or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable law. 
  
 (b) If any provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction,
then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) the other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in favor of the Collateral Agent and the Finance Parties in order to carry out
the intentions of the parties hereto as nearly as may be possible and (ii) the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such provisions in any other jurisdiction.

  
 Section 8.09 Counterparts; Effectiveness.
This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective with respect to each
Loan Party when the Collateral Agent shall receive counterparts hereof executed by itself and such Loan Party. 
  
 Section 8.10 Additional Loan Parties. It is understood and agreed that any Affiliate of the Borrower that is required by any Finance
Document to execute a counterpart of this Agreement after the date hereof shall automatically become a Loan Party hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Loan Party hereunder by executing an instrument of accession or
joinder and delivering the same to the Collateral Agent. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of such instrument of accession or joinder, such Affiliate shall take all such actions and deliver to the Collateral Agent all such documents and
agreements as such Affiliate would have been required to deliver to the Collateral Agent on or prior to the date of this Agreement had such Affiliate been a party hereto on the date of this Agreement. Such additional materials shall include, among
other things, supplements to Schedules I, II, III, IV and V hereto (which Schedules shall thereupon automatically be amended and supplemented to include all information contained in such supplements) such that,
after giving effect to the accession or joinder of such Affiliate, each of Schedules I, II, III, IV and V hereto is true, complete and correct with respect to such Affiliate as of the effective date of such
accession or joinder. The execution and delivery of any such instrument of accession or joinder, and the amendment and supplementation of the Schedules hereto as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, shall not require the consent of any
other Obligor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Loan Party hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Loan Party as a party to this Agreement. 
  
 Section 8.11 Termination; Release of Loan Parties.

  
 (a) Termination. Upon the full, final and
irrevocable payment and performance of all Finance Obligations, the cancellation of all outstanding L/C Obligations and the termination of all Commitments under the Credit Agreement, the Security Interests shall terminate and all rights to the
Collateral shall revert to the Loan Parties. In addition, at any time and from time to time prior to such termination of the Security Interests, the Collateral Agent may release any of the Collateral with the prior written consent of the Required
Lenders; provided that the release of all or any substantial part of the Collateral shall require the consent of all of the Lenders. Upon any such termination of the Security Interests or release of Collateral, the Collateral Agent will, upon
request by and at the expense of any Loan Party, execute and deliver to such Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence the termination of the Security Interests or the release of such Collateral, as the case
may be. Any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent or the Lenders. The Collateral Agent shall have no liability whatsoever to any Creditor as a result of any release 

  

 -26- 









 
of Collateral by it as permitted by this Section 8.11. Upon any release of Collateral pursuant to this Section 8.11, none of the Finance
Parties shall have any continuing right or interest in such Collateral or the proceeds thereof. 
  
 (b) Release of Loan Parties. If any part of the Collateral is sold or otherwise disposed of or liquidated in compliance with the
requirements of the Finance Documents (or such sale, other disposition or liquidation has been approved in writing by those Finance Parties whose approval is required by the applicable Finance Documents and the proceeds of such sale, disposition or
liquidation are applied in accordance with the provisions of the Finance Documents, to the extent applicable, the Collateral Agent, at the request and expense of such Loan Party, will duly release from the security interest created hereby and
assign, transfer and deliver to such Loan Party (without recourse and without representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as is then being (or has been) so sold, disposed of or liquidated as may be in the possession or control of the
Collateral Agent and has not theretofore been released pursuant to this Agreement. 
  
 Section 8.12 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Finance Documents and, in the case of the Swap Creditors, the Swap Agreements, constitute the entire agreement and understanding among
the parties hereto and supersede any and all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, and any contemporaneous oral agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.
